Celtic had almost the perfect day on Saturday, winning with ease 4-0 to extend their lead at the top of the table over arch rivals Rangers.
The game was settled by the brilliance of Giorgos Giakoumakis, who bagged a hattrick as well as setting up the other goal for Daizen Maeda.

Despite the success of another dominant display for Ange Postecoglou’s side, there was some worry around the game as Tom Rogic was forced off just after the half hour mark with injury.
And now, Celtic journalist John McGinley has relayed a major injury update via Postecoglou on the star.
When asked about it after the game, the Hoops boss confirmed it was sore after speaking to the player at half time, but he claimed it wasn’t ‘too bad’ before stating he still expects him to join up with the Australian squad on international duty.
That news will be music to the ears of Celtic supporters who will not want to lose an influential player at such a key part of the season.
Rogic’s importance can’t be overstated. He has already played 42 games for the Hoops this season, showing his reliability to the side and how vital he is to them.
However, if it ends up being worse than first feared, the good news for Celtic is David Turnbull made his return to action against Ross County and can fill in if required.
